Pa. health secretary in diner dispute over eggs
HARRISBURG -- Gov. Tom Corbett's new secretary of health likes his eggs fresh off the grill -- very fresh.

-----

Mr. Hanna says that just weeks after Mr. Corbett tapped Eli N. Avila to serve as the state's top health official, Mr. Avila walked into Mr. Hanna's restaurant opposite the Capitol, ordered an egg sandwich breakfast, and angrily complained that it wasn't fresh enough.

1. What a high-handed, beligerent son of a bitch!
And I am sure he would have had a problem if a fucking chicken was sitting on the counter laying eggs for him. He had no idea whether the eggs had been sitting on the grill for an hour or if they were freshly made, and still he makes a scene---and throws his weight around. What a fucking asshole! I have a feeling we will have a lot more of this as the Corbett crew enjoy their power.
